The boy on the left was wearing a plain black shirt with a denim coat and black slacks. His short black hair was combed to the side, On his left arm old Norse runes trailed down to his wrist. In his hand rested a sleek blue blade with nordic markings decorating the length of the blade, A dull white glow emitted from the blade, behind him were five pairs of the same jet black wings.
The boys looked at each other and bumped the sides of their free hand fists together. The runes on their respective arms began to glow, Like a charging motion each rune lit up before reaching their wrist, once the magic reached their wrist it began to resonate with their blades. The pair vanished, only appearing again right on top of the taller man bringing their blades down with an empowered swing, at the same time with a flash of lighting the clouds let loose a mighty clap of thunder in sync with their blades meeting the light constructs that rested in the man's grip.
With an effortless swing the man pushed them both back before bolting into the storm, they flapped their wings to right themselves and followed shattering windows as they both broke the sound barrier in pursuit of their target. The rain was now coming down in sheets but was forced out of the way by the sheer speed of the two, the smile never left their faces as they chased the man. Sparks flew into the clouds as their legendary swords clashed with his light. This same exchange of blows swirled the clouds around them.
Both boys were smiling ear to ear as they breathed heavily. He had made several hits on the boys to their zero on him. They raised their blades into the night sky and began chatting in old Norse. The blades began to hum louder, the large quantity of magic in the air reacted with the storm itself drawing lighting to their blades.
"So the Norse dare send mercenaries after me?" The man asked his tone full of venom, as he prepared for the next exchange of blows. Suddenly the boys disappeared and appeared again at his sides. Summoning spears of light in each hand he blocked both blades, his annoyance grew immensely as the strength of the boys made him buckle only slightly.
"To think that my own kind would work for a false myth, and come after me. You arrogant boys will die here today, and I will mail your corpses to your all-father as a message!" The man yelled into the night sky as he swiftly shifted, throwing the boys off and grabbing them. With a rage filled throw the boys were sent flying into the storm.
The man put a hand into the air and above him a lance of light began to form doubling in size every second. The boys now were looking at each other with slight concern, they began to start casting their barriers on top of each other. They began crossing their legendary blades to channel their own light. The stormy night sky filled with light comparable to the sun at night from within the storm. The man launched the massive lance and the boys braced themselves, A maniacal laugh was muted by the storm as the assailant watched the two wounded mercs fall. He went down to retrieve their bodies to follow through on his promise. To his surprise, their bodies were nowhere to be found, Losing interest after seeing that they escaped he turned around and flew into the night.
"Dam he's pretty powerful!" Viktor said with a small laugh that he instantly regretted when he winced in pain. He twirled his blade in his hand before a voice spoke in protest.
"Can you please stop twirling me? I'm not a top!" A stoic voice rang out from the red blade in his hand. He just laughed again before putting his sword in a pocket dimension.
"What do you think the all-father is going to say Leo?" Viktor asked his brother before opening a portal back to Asgard.
"Can't say I know, hopefully this will ease his reprimand." He said with a sigh holding an adult club coupon showing it to his brother. They both just looked at each other blankly before bursting out in a fit of laughter before walking into the portal.
Their laughter continued to the other side of the portal as they walked into the golden city battered and bruised, several residents looked at them with concern causing them to stop in place.
"I thought I asked you to stop bringing us back into the shopping district.. You know lady freya is going to kill us if we scare people." Leo said looking at his brother who could only shrug sheepishly. Both boys quickly summoned their wings and took off to the palace area to report to the All-father.
They approached the palace at breakneck speeds only coming to a slow pace as they reached a patio area and standing in the opening was a gorgeous woman with long brown hair. She wore a simple tan dress that had a gold trim on the edges and simple runes spread out across the dress. She stood firm, arms crossed and a foot tapping the marble she stood on, a look of annoyance on her face.
The boys paled as they realized she already knew about their most recent mission.
"Shit she's pissed.." Viktor said landing on the edge of the marble patio, Leo landed next to him quickly walking over to the woman and taking a knee, his brother following suit.
"Lady Freya, my apologies for teleporting directly into the shopping district looking as we did." Leo said, as he looked up to her only to recoil in fear as her annoyance seemed to turn into anger.
"That's not at all what I was coming to talk to you boys about but we will add that to the list of things we must talk about." Freya said to the boys barely containing her anger Leo and Viktor both paled knowing full well what was to come.
Two Hours Later
"So you're telling me that she was angry at you all for pranking Baldur and Leo only made it worse by adding the teleport thing on?" Asked a short man who sat atop a golden throne, he wore a white and blue robe and a golden eye patch covering his right eye. His long grey hair had many braids tied into it.
"That would about sum it up All-father." Viktor said, still wincing just from the mention of what they just went through. The old man let loose a loud hearty laugh as the boys stood up.
"I thought I told you two to quit with that title just call me Odin." He said standing up and stepping away from the throne walking closer to the boys.
"Look boys I'm sorry to send you back out so soon after returning but I have another mission I need you boys to take care off." Odin said, taking the coupon Leo had grabbed for him.
"I need you both to go to Japan for me." He said, eliciting a look from the boys.
"Japan? That's a little strange, any reason why?" Viktor asked
"Let's just say we have a peace treaty signing coming in six months time and I need you two to go establish yourselves so we have some footing." Odin said, walking out to the large patio in the throne room. The boys followed close behind.
"That sounds like a really sensitive deal, are you sure you want us going? I mean we are fallen so that could cause problems." Leo piped up curious at the request.
"Nonsense you will be going to Kouh town Japan it's currently under the control of the gremory heiress. And we are making this treaty with hopefully the biblical faction as a whole." He said before looking behind him to the boys a dumbfounded look on their face.
"Forgive me All-fath- Odin you plan on sending us, two fallen not even associated with the grigori straight into devil territory, satan's little sisters territory even under the pretense of establishing a foothold. Forgive me if I say that sounds a little bit absurd." Viktor said, pulling a pack of cigs from his coat pocket.
"That about sums it up, I mean you two are able to hide your lineage aren't you? I mean your mother taught you that she did not?" Odin said, running his hand down his beard.
"I mean yes our mother taught us that but that is beyond the point Sir, you realize that we could accidentally start a war inside the biblical faction if our linege is found out by that snobby heiress." Viktor said after taking a long drag from the cigarette.
"Nonsense you two will be fine besides Freya has already approved it. And sense your mother left you all in our care when she passed that final." Odin said with a mischievous grin on his face. The boys at a loss of words just turned around and walked away to prepare for this mission.
"Also I forgot to add that you will be attending Kouh academy's college courses as a cover!" Odin yelled from behind them only causing a sigh of dread from the boys.
The boys walked down the long hallway to their room only to run into a Thin man who stood a couple feet taller than them. He wore a fancy white formal wear and had long white hair, "Oh great hello Loki." Viktor said less than amused to see him
"Ah good afternoon you vermin I see the All-father is letting the pest roam free." He said his voice filled with venom.
"Yes but don't worry yourself, these vermin will be leaving once again so we don't need to see your face." Leo said, more than annoyed with Loki's tone, suddenly Freya appeared from around once of the corners hearing the interaction.
"Loki I thought I asked you to leave these boys alone and check that tone of yours, your disrespect is unrequired and I ask that you see yourself from these halls and back to your dwelling. Loki turned and walked away even he wasnt dumb enough to challenge the all-mother to a fair fight.
"Has Odin updated you two on the mission that you're going on? She asked her tone now more of a motherly one.
"Yes Lady Freya." the boys said in unison.
"I told you boys to drop the Lady bit when we are not in public, I know i'm not your mother but we did raise you boys after she passed." Freya said as she put a hand on their shoulders.
"Listen I know you boys can handle yourselves sense you've been training day and night but please be careful okay?" Freya said worry in her voice.
"Okay Freya, now if you will excuse us we need to get ready." Viktor said as the boys turned and began to walk to their room. Freya stood in place and she looked at the boys as they walked away.
"I've raised a child before but these poor boys have been through so much, shunned by all due to their lineage. I just wish they will find their happiness, their home one day." Freya thought to herself as she watched the boys rough house down the hallway to their room.
A Couple Hours Later
"Well time we get going what do you say Leo" Viktor said tossing a bag over his shoulder.
"Yea" Leo said, opening a portal to a small apt building that Odin gave him the information for. As the boys stepped through the portal they avoided having to interact with Asgards current visitor.
"Ah good evening Governor-General Azazel, what can we do for you this evening?" Freya said standing on the throne room patio as the new arrival landed.
